The Allen and Heath ZED-24 Mixer has a really advanced feature-set for a mixer at this level. It has 23 independent sources to the mix, 10 independent outputs, 4 aux sends, a USB send & return for PC or Mac recording, playback and effects, a unique dual stereo input capability and some very advanced monitoring facilities.

2nd PA set up

this PA is going to be a high budget set up
medium


for this set up i decided that i only had to change the PA due to a larger audience.



HK audio linear 5  -  this loudspeaker can cost up to 6k, this speakers can be used for slightly bigger venues due to the amount of power they can hold. you can find the link to these speakers here

HK audio lsub Subwoofer x2- using 2 of these subwoofers will be more than enough to play at slightly bigger venues - you can find the link for this here


mackie 1604-vlz4 - this 16 channel mixing desk not only looks beautiful but also features with 16 boutique-quality Onyx mic preamps, high headroom and low-noise design. extended frequencey responses. this mixer has a 3-band EQ (80hz,2.5khz,12khz). there is LEDs on each channel and has 4 aux sends,.level,pan and solo and overload/mute. it also reduces stuff like dust getting inside the mixer with the sealed rotary controls. for the price i feel like this mixer would be most appropriate and its not to big so there wont be lot of hassle trying to takr iit from place to place

i will be using these for the PA because while being relatively affordable they are every high powered when it comes to the quality of the sound can are easy to get around. its inspired by the award winning liner-ray system. IP1000 has (8 x 2.75" neodymium drivers for clean mid range and high frequency reproduction with a super tweaker at the top which extends high end sound even more.  the base of the speaker contains 8 x 2"  LF driver  for the low end responses also tho inputs/outputs and system controls with a clear screen.has a strong material and handles for easier transport.
